Jesus Christ, this is still around. That feels weird. It feels even weirder to be posting under this name. This place is an eternal shrine to the dumb things I did in the past and it will never go away. The shame will never die.

That being said, it's unreal that people still post here. I met a lot of cool people in my time here, but I lost contact with almost all of them. I don't even know why I'm posting this. Some deep sense of nostalgia, maybe. I made this account when I was what, 14? I'm 22 now. Weird stuff, man.

holy great. I was literally 13 when I joined here. This is the first place my internet presence registered. The feels. I'll even type in yellow for this.

I'm an economics graduate now, and an artist. Looking back on ot I was in an awful place when I was here last time.

Rest in peace Callin Fear. You will not be missed.

Oh, don't think of it like
that.
We were all a bit silly and goofy back in the day, yes that's true, but it was a much happier time. A time of carefree fun and silliness where we would engage in whatever we wanted. Although most of us were in school back then, now we're swamped with several other worries and stresses, like payments and jobs. Now, our idea of fun is just to lay there because we're so worn out from all of our homework and jobs. I know I sound overly sentimental here, but I think I speak for everyone here when I say it'd be nice to go back to those days, even if its just for a little while.

Congratulations. But your signature seemed to be a glimpse into the future.

Double-post.

To this day, I still wonder how some of the very old users, who had signed up back in 2003 or a few years later, would react if they saw their old threads still on the front page.

Bowser Madius and Mr. Q in particular, since their threads are still going strong after all of this time. It's been ten years and a month for the former, ha.

I'd also like to say I hope that all the users who formerly were active here who have moved on to bigger and better things, I wish you luck and may your path be easy and full of excitement.

You were having fun, obviously. I mean we all were. Back when all we cared about was having fun and engaged in our interests all the time.

I know that I am and at times I really don't like it. That's okay though, because life is like that, you know.

Yeah, holy crap, man. This website is like the key to a few people's childhoods.

Indeed it is. It's kind of fun, though.

The buttsex one of the shitty drawing?

Cos my drawings stayed shitty for a long time, then they suddenly turned into great like this:

Back in February, Blur announced the April 27 release of their new album, The Magic Whip. Damon Albarn talked about the influence of studio surroundings on the bandâ€™s work:

â€œThereâ€™s something about the studio we recorded it in, it was really different. I've recorded in a lot of places around the world and every place has its own spirit, so it was really interesting to make that decision it was going to be about Hong Kong. Thereâ€™s points on the record where I think it really sounds like the stuff that David Bowie did in Berlin. Thereâ€™s nothing pastoral about it. It's very much an urban record.â€œ

Now Albarn has chosen David Bowieâ€™s 1977 masterpiece, Low, for an iTunes selection of Blurâ€™s favourite albums. Hereâ€™s what he had to say about the record.

David Bowie - Low
â€œThe sound of David and Brian absorbing punk then taking it to Berlin to produce a futuristic record, right on the frontline of the Cold War.â€œ

We should point out that the page is apparently only available in the UK, Turkey & Russia.

ALBARN SELECTS BOWIE FOR ITUNES ALBUM FAVES

Very cool! I'm excited for TMW. So far the songs off of it have been really cool, and it's so great to hear Graham on Blur songs again!

As far as "Low" goes, such an influential album. Makes sense that Damon would be digging it. It is a huge push behind NIN's "The Downward Spiral", and really opened up a lot of the experimental electronic rock side of things.

So, whatever he does for the next Gorillaz effort, I hope he finds the right producer and studio to do it in, and focuses on those two aspects a lot. It's the only thing PB was kind of missing.
